Hello

Does anyone have any ideas on software auditing tools (eg applications
which will scan a PC/Mac and list all software (and maybe attached
hardware) on the machine being scanned?

Our organisation needs to carry out this task on all our standalone
equipment to check licenses, etc.

Thanks for any help,

Brian

I have a Mac Auditor from MXM(?) in Fremint, California which scans a
system for software. A small, shareware application which works quite
well. I think I got from one of the big Mac FTP sites. If you can't find
it, let me know and I'll e-mail a copy - its only 24k

Regards,
Larry Stoter

Try contacting PMD Technology on 01462-480297. They sell a product
called AuditManager which will work with Mac and PCs. They can demo it
if required.

I am sure there are specific packages, but maybe something like
Cleansweep would suffice?
